To improve the suppression of faults caused by the supply network, you can specify the
network frequency for signal filtering. The measuring rate is 100 Hz for the 50 Hz setting,
and 120 Hz for the 60 Hz setting.
If no anchor points are used, the number of support points is equal to the number of load
cells.
If anchor points are used in addition to load cells, the number of support points is equal to
the total number of load cells and fixed support points.
Load cell characteristic value
The load cell characteristic value is required to correctly interpret the output voltage from the
load cell. This specification is also necessary for determining load cell overload. The exact
value can be entered if the measurement log for the load cell is available. The mean value
can be entered if there is more than one load cell.
Characteristic value = 2.018 mV/V
Rated load of a load cell
The rated load of a load cell is required for checking the maximum weighing range of the
scales. The rated load is entered in the specified units of weight.
